\"\"<\/a>That’s the topic that seems to be on every one’s minds right now.\u00a0 I’m not a big fan of the “New Years Resolution”.\u00a0 I don’t believe in making unrealistic goals, that I know I will not accomplish or even want to try.\u00a0 I quit smoking last year, not on Jan. 1st but sometime in February because I was ready.\u00a0 Today everyone at work was asking what your NYR was, most people are going to diet, one wants to quit smoking, another wants to organize, etc, etc.\u00a0 Me, because I’m very sarcastic, and not of a normal natural at all, answered with, “I’m going to take up drinking.”\u00a0 <\/em>I pretty much got a shocked reaction to that one.\u00a0 But, hey, I don’t really drink at all, it’s a fun goal, it’s attainable, and who says you have to have a positive resolution!\u00a0 This is much better.\u00a0 Don’t worry Mom, I’m sure I won’t do that, but it does make people stop asking me about it.\u00a0 Here is a somewhat, almost attainable list of New Years Resolutions I may do…..
\n1. Stop eating 1\/2 a bag of Hersey’s Kisses at night when I’m on the computer<\/strong><\/em>-I will lower my intake to 1\/4 of a bag, this will cut down on the stomach aches, and pounds.
\n2. Rock out to Guitar Hero World Tour everyday<\/strong><\/em>-I would say exercise, but I know that won’t happen, I’m sure I burn enough calories being a Rock Star!
\n3. Stop saying out loud what I am thinking in my head<\/strong><\/em>-I can’t go with “be nicer to people”, cuz that’s never gonna happen!
\n4. Hide my face when I roll my eyes<\/strong><\/em>-I am a constant eye-roller, ask anyone that knows me, this is something I will never be able to stop!\u00a0 I do it without even knowing it, maybe that’s why I get so many headaches!
\n5. Only yell at stupid people who cut me off in traffic when the kids are NOT in the car<\/strong><\/em>-they’re starting to beat me to it (“oh what a stupid idiot”, “where did he learn to drive”, “get a clue dumb-ass” “Moron!”)
\n6. Have a semi-positive attitude<\/strong><\/em>-I’m know to have a negative outlook (glass half empty person, waiting for the other shoe to drop, bad things happen in 3’s etc.)
\n7. Start Gambling<\/strong><\/em>-this falls into the category “win the lottery”, but since I don’t buy any tickets I can’t win unless I start.
\n8. Be in bed by midnight on weeknights<\/strong><\/em>-I have a habit of finding awful shows to watch late at night (Adult Swim on Cartoon Network) and I’ve always been a night owl.
\n9. Cut down on 1 Mtn. Dew a day<\/strong><\/em>-Please note it’s NOT <\/strong>drink 1 Mtn. Dew a day, it’s 1 less, so instead of 4 a day, I’ll go with 3.
\n10. Buy less “Yoga Pants<\/strong><\/em>“-Nope, I don’t do Yoga, don’t want to, just like the nice, comfy pants they make.\u00a0 I just don’t need 10 pairs or more of them.
\nOh yea, and Take up drinking!
\nSo there you go that’s my “Realistic New Years Resolutions for 2009”, we’ll see how I do.\u00a0 Good luck to all of you with any goals you may have in the new year!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
